FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention generally relates to the drinking systems. Specifically, this invention is related to receiving a detection that the first person is approaching to the water container by detecting the first RFID tag.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Minerals, such as various vitamins, are essential elements to human beings. It is known that different vitamins can provide different benefits to health of human beings. For example, vitamin C can help fight against diseases such as colds; vitamin D can help strengthen bones. Conventionally, human consume vitamins as pills, after they are mixed with water. The problem is the control of amount of the minerals that should be taken on a daily basis. There are times that a person may be too busy to ingest a required mineral. There are also times that the person may ingest an excessive amount of minerals on a given day. As such, there is a need for people to ingest vitamins and any other minerals in more efficient manners. Further, there is a need to stop a person if the person has consumed an excessive amount of vitamins so that the ingested vitamins are wasted. Even further, there is a need to warn a person if the person has consumed an excessive amount of vitamins so that the ingested vitamins are wasted.
